Galactus SDCC Comic Con Exclusive
 

ToyFare and Marvelousnews both confirm

NO MarvelMan figure

However, we are getting Galactus a bit early.The will be offering him on a blister card (extra long) and will be offered along side SDCC AOT Thor and WW2 Cap.

Heres to hoping that this product will be offered on HTS and I wont have to scalp it.

No Marvelman Figure For SDCC, But Galactus Will Be On Hand - Marvel - MarvelousNews.com

But the big question is, will you buy this figure as an SDCC exclusive with no box to keep it in, or will you wait? I find this very timely with our current discussion on to open or not to open. Check out the pol

I'm going to comic con ,but since I don't have a silver surfer yet, I'll wait for the boxed version.

But the carded guy is 7inches bigger?

I dont think so. The cardstock itself is bigger to accomodate his 19inch self.

Just think of a HUGGGEEE MU card

Not really going to make a decision until I see how much it is, but for now, it doesn't really interest me.

Not only will this Galactus be the one toy I leave unopened, I think I'm going to build a shadowbox for it. Or see if AFA can grade it and slap it in a plastic box so I can keep it in the living room floor.

The kitsch value alone is worth it.

I'll be at SDCC and I'll make the decision then. I agree with DrewBlank about the kitsch value, I think it'll be hard to pass up...and even harder to get home undamaged!

I have to admit...I'm kinda thinking of getting the SDCC version. All I want is Galactus and I'm not one to really hold onto boxes too much. I get the feeling that the SDCC version may not have silver surfer which is fine with me because I got the single carded version anyway.

It'd actually be kinda cool to see what number they give him on the card and if he gets a fury file. And if I decide to get the regular boxed Galactus, he will remain unopened.

I think I just convinced myself

isnt the silver surfer that comes with galactus have metalic silver,more silver than the wave 1 surfer.

And also when you read a new post and then go back to the main menu isnt the thread name supposed to be unhighlighted,whenever i do that the thread name is still highlighted ,maybe its just me.

I hope HTS has it online to order during or after SDCC event. I wouldn't mind having the carded and boxed version.

Someone explain SDCC exclusives to me? If I got to the show do they just sell them at the booth? Do they sell out quick? How's it work? I have tickets for Sunday.

im not sure but i heard that with the DC direct exclusives you had to be a winner in a raffle type thing to even purchase one of the exclusives

This is so cool. I still want the boxed version, but having a giant-freaking carded Galactus is just too damn cool to pass on. I guess it's good that I won't be at SDCC so I won't be tempted. But if he shows up on HTS I might break down and get him.

Based on the replies, I'm wondering if a fourth option to this poll would have been needed - i.e. buying both.

For me, I'll wait until I find out how much HTS will want for the carded version. I'll probably still get the boxed version when it comes out, whether I buy the SDCC one or not. If I do end up with both, the boxed version will be opened, since I will most likely be able to re-seal it later.

Thats a good point too. But if Galactus comes with a Fury File it would be too tempting for me to not see what it says.

Has anybody picked up a copy of Toyfare? The article should be in there with a pic of the carded Galactus

Carded MU Galactus for SCDD...and more
 

Don't know if this is new news or not, but I hadn't seen anything about it yet, if it's not new or news feel free to lock it up or delete it :D

Originally from Marvelous News:

That carded Galactus looks SWEEEEEET!!! If I do get it, I'm going to try to 'customize' my carded Silver Surfer next to it so it looks cool together.

Hurrrge cards ftw

Very awesome. I wish they would do a 3 3/4" Galactus too, just for the hell of it.

And uh... why the hell is Captain America ball-jointed? That better be an early prototype or something.

Galactussss!!! This is the reason why we collect these figures:D

The carded figure looks pretty sweet. Almost looks like a 6" figure.

SO... does this mean 2 different packaging options for Galactus? Because I thought that the images before were boxed. AND that they came with Surfer... I WILL get Cap and Thor (and they will stay MOC - unusual for me since i am a player and not collector.) But will have to get 2nd Thor to play with.

where is this SCDD happening?

Wow, that's a big card.:eek:

San Diego CA in July.

I wish I could go. This year the guy I know that normally goes is taking a vacation with his Lady and will not be able to attend. I will be hitting up HTS on Sunday night/Monday morning.
